During the Sidharth Malhotra-Vicky Kaushal episode of Koffee With Karan, Karan Johar revealed that he knew Student of the Year would not be considered logical. He said that he sat with creative director Abhishek Varman four days into the shooting of the film. He then told Varman, “Why are we making this film? Have you read the script?" 

He acknowledged that what they finally shot was very different from the script. "I don’t know what I was doing. I think I was drunk or something," he said in the show, further acknowledging that while the movie turned out to be an entertaining watch, it had its "own journey". 

Alia Bhatt who has given a spate of critically acclaimed and commercially hit movies, saw her latest film 'Darlings' release earlier this month on Netflix. She has 'Brahmastra' and her Hollywood release, 'Heart of Stone' in line.
